3 H. Ito, Japan-Norway Energy Science Week 2015, 28 May 2015, Tokyo 3 A Synergy between Hydrogen and Electricity Grid Connected RE-Hydrogen System Hydrogen may be used as fuel in almost every application where fossil fuels are being used today. Hydrogen is useful as an energy carrier, because energy storage density is significantly high with compressed form, liquefied form, or metal hydride. Grid Independent RE-Hydrogen System From sustainability point of view, a synergy between hydrogen and electricity and renewable energy sources is particularly promising. Hydrogen production with water electrolysis must be suitable for renewable energy sources.. F. Barbir, Solar Energy 78 (2005) pp
4 H. Ito, Japan-Norway Energy Science Week 2015, 28 May 2015, Tokyo 4 Totalized Hydrogen Energy Utilization System (THEUS) Hydrogen station To enhance the versatility of hydrogen energy in the industrial, the commercial, and the transportation sectors through THEUS.
5 H. Ito, Japan-Norway Energy Science Week 2015, 28 May 2015, Tokyo 5 Outline URFC and MH tank have been evaluated as key components of hydrogen energy system in stationary applications. A bench-scale URFC was installed and would be evaluated as an energy conversion system. MH tank was developed by own and evaluated in a long time operation. In particular, we have been focusing on the thermal energy recovery from the both operations of URFC and MH tank.

17 H. Ito, Japan-Norway Energy Science Week 2015, 28 May 2015, Tokyo 17 Summary In this study, we investigated the performance of URFC and MH tank as key components of hydrogen storage system. The bench-scale URFC could operated quite successfully. The performance of each operation mode in URFC was comparable with that of individual apparatus of PEM electrolyzer and PEMFC. MH tank was developed and tested in daily cycle operation. Reaction heat recovery rate was excellent as over 70 %. The connection between URFC and MH tank was completed, and consolidated test is ongoing.
